Hyperbolic Tilings
In hyperbolic geometry, a uniform hyperbolic tiling (or regular, quasiregular or semiregular hyperbolic tiling) is an edge-to-edge filling of the hyperbolic plane which has regular polygons as Face (geometry), faces and is vertex-transitive (Transitive group action, transitive on its vertex (geometry), vertices, isogonal, i.e. there is an isometry mapping any vertex onto any other). It follows that all vertices are Congruence (geometry), congruent, and the tessellation, tiling has a high degree of rotational and translational symmetry. Uniform tilings can be identified by their vertex configuration, a sequence of numbers representing the number of sides of the polygons around each vertex. For example, 7.7.7 represents the heptagonal tiling which has 3 heptagons around each vertex. It is also regular since all the polygons are the same size, so it can also be given the Schläfli symbol . Uniform tilings may be Regular polyhedron, regular (if also face- and edge-transitive), quasi- ...

Uniform Tiling 532-t0
A uniform is a variety of costume worn by members of an organization while usually participating in that organization's activity. Modern uniforms are most often worn by armed forces and paramilitary organizations such as police, emergency services, security guards, in some workplaces and schools, and by inmates in prisons. In some countries, some other officials also wear uniforms in their duties; such is the case of the Public Health Service Commissioned Corps, Commissioned Corps of the United States Public Health Service or the France, French préfet, prefects. For some organizations, such as police, it may be illegal for non-members to wear the uniform. Etymology From the Latin ''unus'' (meaning one), and ''forma'' (meaning form). Variants Corporate and work uniforms Workers sometimes wear uniforms or corporate clothing of one nature or another. Workers dress code, required to wear a uniform may include retail workers, bank and post-office workers, public security, pu ...
